Love
Miracle’s Curse
Adrian shivered in the red brick hallways. Although there were red lanterns to guide him along the black floor, it was dark and cold. These maze-like hallways were bland and much the same; he had gotten lost more than once before. But somehow Sara Felle knew her way around without difficulties. This afternoon—closer to evening than midday, really—she had been summoned out of the mansion for reasons she wouldn't speak of. It was a relief to not have her sharp ice eyes on him wherever he went. But now wasn't the time to relax. He had to find the box. Sara had nearly killed him when he found it in one of the guest rooms. He had burns to prove it. But now he hungrily searched for it.

The Fall of Alique
The cigarette smoked, curling around her lips in the windless night. Soft embers nibbled at the burning paper holding the fading bits of tobacco as Alique took one final drag on the cigarette. She spat the butt from her mouth, watching with semi-apathetic interest as it cartwheeled down the rooftop. It rained orange onto the shingles before bouncing off the gutter.
